Following my visit to the British Fly Fair International 2010, and drawing inspiration from Steffan Jones to tie some Sea Trout flies for next season. I have never targeted Sea Trout before but, I will definitely be giving it a go next season. He gave me a fly that he had tied on the day at the In Focus Theatre.
I have made an attempt at tying something similar, with what I consider to be a good effort for the first attempt. I will be trying different recopies over the next few weeks and will give them a swim next season.
Please leave your comments good or bad on the tying pictured.
